South Africa vs Pakistan | 1st Test | Johannesburg | 2/2/13 | Day 2

[Fire Bird]

After the Ind-Pak series, some PPers were saying Pakistan is not only superior to India in bowling but also in batting. Well nothing says superior than 49 all out Cant even make 50 for Gods sake

 

[shah_1]

Rahat Ali one thing he lacks is the consistency with line and length

 

[shah_1]

Sami Syndrome

 

[shahidafridi123]

Rubbish cricket from Pakistan, utter nonsense!

 

[HaMmy FinE LeG StriKeR]

look how quick and easily they have reached 46/0


what a joke pak where,


the pitch has movement but it isnt a 49 all out pitch,

this is a 200-250 pitch at the moment,

sir our bowling and batting both are a joke, SA is way ahead in both the departments, they out classed us simply

 

[MoinHaroon]

rameez what did you do

 

[mosh101]

Junaid bowling at a mere 132

 

[shahidafridi123]

Need to bring Hafeez on

 

[tarrar]

Mohammed Akram should be questioned here that why he did not work with the bowlers a lot & what happened to the swing?

He is a very crap coach. Ian Pont would had been a good pick. Thank You old Intikhab.

 

[malakian]

This guy is a trundler.

 

[IndianWillow]

South Africa will bat all of day 3 if they could.

 

[tarrar]

No swing at all by Pak pacers, absolutely nothing.

 

[MoinHaroon]

We are shown our place, we are not that good. Specially when we do not have players on Merit, dropping Irfan, Misbah and Younus do not belong in team

 

[MattyB]

I think it's time the PCB appealed the Amir and Asif decisions.

Gul and Rahat are trundlers.

Amir
Asif
Ajmal
Junaid

Better than over-rated South African bowling line up

You mean that bowling attack that is so over-rated that they could only bowl Pakistan out of 49?

What makes you think that if/when Amir and Asif return that they will be even half as good as what they were? They have spent many years out of cricket and this will probably have had quite a major effect on their ability.

 

[mosh101]

What a poor cricketer is this rahat

 

[HaMmy FinE LeG StriKeR]

Mohammed Akram should be questioned here that why he did not work with the bowlers a lot & what happened to the swing?

He is a very crap coach. Ian Pont would had been a good pick. Thank You old Intikhab.

depression and more and more depression

 

[shah_1]

Rahat Ali is also one of the worst fielders

 

[MoinHaroon]

How can we improve when we do not give chance to players like Haris

 

[Jo_Don]

Where's that clown from yesterday who was carrying on about Steyn not being able to swing it in?

 

[tarrar]

Rahat Ali does look pretty poor tbh.

He is very poor, he is nothing.

 

[shah_1]

Juniad Khan is also looking pretty harmless

this is depressing to watch

 

[mosh101]

My dad just got back from Umrah and gets the shock of his life to see Pak bundled for 49 hahaha

 

[tarrar]

Where's that clown from yesterday who was carrying on about Steyn not being able to swing it in?

Lozzz. There are many clowns in this forum.

 

[MJcricket]

Rahat Ali is also one of the worst fielders

Looking at his body language, this guy is certainly playing his last test for Pak.

 

[Noman]

Why is Their bowling junaid..
Junaid have already bowled alot of overs..
smith is average vs spin.. Bowl hafees, Ajmal and rahat..keep the bowler fresh for the next match.
keep spin one end and pace next end..
And try Younis.. We need to think forward. and see what we can make the best out of this test match,

Hafees and Ajmal please.. more people around the bat.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Rameez making stupid excuses

 

[Jo_Don]

I think it's time the PCB appealed the Amir and Asif decisions.

Gul and Rahat are trundlers.

Amir
Asif
Ajmal
Junaid

Better than over-rated South African bowling line up

Same overrated attack that bowled out a team for less than 50 for the 3rd time in less than 2 years.

 

[shahidafridi123]

Hey jo don r u watching at the ground?

 

[MoinHaroon]

time to pray Fajr and sleep

 

[battler]

this match is becoming a snooze fest

 

[mithun_minhas]

Rahat looks like a proper trundler. He also sprays the ball around.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Is this the same wicket?

 

[ekpakistani]

great batting display ... and quite pathetic bowling ..

 

[mosh101]

Poor delivery put away for four

 

[Bilal7]

Same overrated attack that bowled out a team for less than 50 for the 3rd time in less than 2 years.

No need to get riled up by some sore losers who I doubt are even Pakistani.

Misbah should just bring on Ajmal and Hafeez now, our pacers are not doing much here, barring Junaid.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Rahat Ali looks like an Indian bowler

 

[JibranAnsari]

No bowling talent
No batting talent

there is nothing to be excited about this team

 

[mosh101]

Junaid is being ineffective too and this is not a good sign for us

 

[ekpakistani]

can't smith just declare now? and win the test match in 2 days?

 

[endymion248]

Story of his match, 3 beauties and 3 poor ones each over.

 

[MoinHaroon]

This is getting boring, SA should have not batted again,

 

[mosh101]

Professor on

 

[Jo_Don]

No need to get riled up by some sore losers who I doubt are even Pakistani.

Misbah should just bring on Ajmal and Hafeez now, our pacers are not doing much here, barring Junaid.

On the contrary, I'm actually finding some of the nonsense spouted quite amusing

 

[MoinHaroon]

can't smith just declare now? and win the test match in 2 days?

He should, you are a tool,

 

[mosh101]

51 for no loss and we get bundled for 49

 

[MJcricket]

Rahat Ali looks like an Indian bowler

Good way to console yourself.

 

[MoinHaroon]

We should trade Rahat Ali for Ishant Sharma

 

[tarrar]

Hafeez was luck to get 4 wickets in first innings because he was bowling to lower order batsmen, lets see how he is going to do here.

 

[Fire Bird]

LOL Im enjoying the wrist slitting thats going on here

 

[MoinHaroon]

Inzi did the right thing not to be available as batting coach

 

[ekpakistani]

i want the test match to end soon .. can't take Ramiz's comments anymore .. mute button doesn't work either

 

[tarrar]

Ramiz saying Pak team is not having batting coach. Inzi not part of the team.

 

[MoinHaroon]

LOL Im enjoying the wrist slitting thats going on here

So am I

 

[mosh101]

Can't believe we've gone to SA with such a incompetent unit

 

[MoinHaroon]

Bring on :Ajmal

 

[Fire Bird]

We should trade Rahat Ali for Ishant Sharma

No thanks. Sharma is a better batsman. He will ensure his team wont be bowled for less than 50

 

[ekpakistani]

i want this over to go for 20 runs .. come on destory rahat's career pls

 

[tarrar]

Rahat is hard to see I just want to cry when I see him bowling & even Guls bowling is crap.

 

[ekpakistani]

SA are playing badly ... they should attack ... why are they so defensive ..

 

[MoinHaroon]

Can't believe we've gone to SA with such a incompetent unit

You have to agree SA is a good side, we just were hoping against hope

 

[HaMmy FinE LeG StriKeR]

Rahat Ali one thing he lacks is the consistency with line and length

Sami Syndrome

Rahat Ali is also one of the worst fielders

you remember this

Rahat is Multan tiger

well see

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvrM9o9lU50

see after 37 mins to see the quality of pace and 48 mins [to see Younis khan was destroyed by great inswinger]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paNbRYiSMNA

also see the great over after 2:03[wicket of Ali waqas]


He is pure Talent,



Tanvir is just handy and hard working bowler.

lol, you cant compare an international proven player with flat pitch domestic bowler, tanvir is certainly more than handy, even has an average even lower than junaid khan, and he is a good all rounder, an average of 29 in the batting, even higher than our WK akmal

told ya

 

[mosh101]

So all the problems that surfaced during team selection for this tour reflecting in our performance now.

 

[style_guru]

I had bookmarked a few posts from one of the prominent posters here, who had recently claimed that Pakistan are the best team ATM, and shall destroy SA when they tour there.

I know the series is not over yet, but I doubt the mental scars will go during the rest of matches.

 

[MoinHaroon]

No thanks. Sharma is a better batsman. He will ensure his team wont be bowled for less than 50

He can open for Pakistan

 

[endymion248]

you remember this







told ya

How pathetic can one get? Being happy that a bowler failed because you predicted so and because he got the nod ahead of your favourite?

Some comment on Shafiq or Sarfraz's performance?

 

[MoinHaroon]

Commi saying why is Pakistan so defensive, this is just stupid from Misbah

 

[MoinHaroon]

Misbah thinks he can bat tuk tuk for 3 days and save the match

 

[CalculatedRisk]

A flashy Farhat 30 would have been better than the pathetic display on offer today

 

[MoinHaroon]

bring him up

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Can't believe we've gone to SA with such a incompetent unit

Who else was there? Sami, Akmals, MoYo, Farhat who else? Face it we play on dead tracks and this is expected on lively tracks.

 

[mithun_minhas]

South Africa outscored Pak in mere 13 overs.

 

[mosh101]

All too easy for SA

 

[Bilal7]

Commi saying why is Pakistan so defensive, this is just stupid from Misbah

So what would you do if you were in his shoes? Let South Africa be 450-500 up by the end of today?

Pakistan need to restrict the run-flow here and the bowlers, not Misbah have to do that.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Ball has stopped swinging and there is no movement.

Pak will be chasing leather the next 2 days I guess.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Misbah looking at the ball and asking it why do you do so much for SA

 

[mosh101]

Who else was there? Sami, Akmals, MoYo, Farhat who else? Face it we play on dead tracks and this is expected on lively tracks.

Yes and that's why we need to have bouncy/green tracks built at domestic level. PCB needs to work on this rather than spending millions on a stadium facility which has no freakin use for us.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Time to give ajmal a go as well, Rahat is pointless.

 

[mithun_minhas]

No Rahat for Rahat.

 

[MoinHaroon]

So what would you do if you were in his shoes? Let South Africa be 450-500 up by the end of today?

Pakistan need to restrict the run-flow here and the bowlers, not Misbah have to do that.

Why attack, you loose by 300 or 250 who cares, there is no point in saving runs. Try to take wickets
